YOU HAVE NO CLUE ABOUT FLORIDA LAW.

IF he had been charge he would have AUTOMATICALLY gone to an intervention court and upon completion of treatment the charges DROPPED. NO RECORD, NOTHING.

It IS handled as a medical issue via the FL state drug intervention courts.

This system was used by a democrat state rep from broward count and by the daughter of J.Bush. The difference there is that you did not have lawyer friends of the clintons pushing this case.

It is also worth noting the FL bar is SITTING on bar compaint on the State Attorney. (the same charges another lawyer has already recieved a probable cause finding.)

He is NOT being treated the same as anyone else. The entire case is pure garbage.

go to law school, then open your mouth.

Found one -

http://spa.american.edu/justice/publications/Florida%20Statute%20Authorizing%20Drug%20Courts.htm

"Consent for admission to the program must be obtained from the victim, state attorney, and judge who presided at the initial appearance."

Somehow I think the relationship between Rush and the State Attorney might be somewhat strained at this point...
